commit 554b841d470338a3b1d6335b14ee1cd0c8f5d754 upstream.
The TPM RNG functionality is not necessary for entropy when the CPU
already supports the RDRAND instruction. The TPM RNG functionality
was previously disabled on a subset of AMD fTPM series, but reports
continue to show problems on some systems causing stutter root caused
to TPM RNG functionality.
Expand disabling TPM RNG use for all AMD fTPMs whether they have versions
that claim to have fixed or not. To accomplish this, move the detection
into part of the TPM CRB registration and add a flag indicating that
the TPM should opt-out of registration to hwrng.
